First time questions

Hey, I am thinking about growing and have never really done it before so I was wondering what space allocations i need for the process. I unfortunately don't have a free closet but do live in a fairly open area with plenty of room to grow outdoors. I am only looking to grow about 1-2 plants as this is for personal use. Any help would be great, I do have an old non working mini refrigerator that i thought might make a good space until the plants get to big for it let me know what yall think.

the mini fridge won;t work unless you keep the door open because the plants need fresh air to grow. you need to use something you can cut holes in - some people even use cardboard boxes.

TrainWreck08, take a look at my journal and you'll see my overall setup. This may give you some ideas. You could even put it outside. They come in different shapes and sizes. Best of all your local hardware store has them.
